I'm so delighted that this is all available here. Dorothy Shay, my great aunt and godmother, cohosted a good portion of these, and until now, I've only been able to hear a few episodes.

However, because she isn't credited anywhere here as "cohost" of the Coca Cola Spotlight Review, searching by her name doesn't bring this up.

Anyway to change that?? I don't see any "wiki" liek abilities for patrons to add keywords, or the like.

if it's variety you're looking for, these stand out. although the beetlebum gag is flogged. musically spike jones was the frank zappa of his era. material is repeated in this series.

sav rekons 4 to 4.5 stars
